James Taylor — My Heart Stood Still

I laughed at sweethearts I met at schools All indiscreet hearts They seemed romantic fools A house in Iceland It was my heart's domain I see your eyes Now castles rise in Spain! I took one look at you That’s all I meant to do And then my heart stood still My feet could step and walk My lips could move and talk And yet my heart stood still Though not a single word was spoken I could tell you knew That secret touch of hands Told me so well you knew I never lived at all Until the thrill of that moment When my heart stood still Though not a single word was spoken I could tell you knew That secret touch of hands Told me so well you knew I never lived at all Until the thrill of that moment When my heart stood still Oh that moment when my heart stood still
